Newmarket Holidays at a glance
We are here to enrich lives and well-being through travel. To bring that to life, we know our success is driven by our exceptional people. We create wish-list holidays. The type of holidays that people have always dreamt of doing. We bring those dreams to life and are the trusted friends of our loyal customers.
To travel responsibly and for good is to travel with care and consideration for not only the local people of the places that we visit, but also the planet.
Helping our customers explore close-to-come and far-flung corners of the world is a privilege – one that we don’t take lightly. And, with each tour, cruise, or event that we operate, we recognise our responsibility and the impact of our global footprint.
We’re well aware that travelling around the globe can have a negative impact on the planet, and as a company and industry, there’s a long way to go. Our company’s mission is to enrich lives and improve wellbeing through travel. A big part of that is ‘Travel for Good’. Our ‘Travel for Good’ hub is our first step in a long journey to reduce carbon, offset anything we produce as a company and travel without harming the planet or the people of the destinations we go to.
For the future and the next generations of our families and friends, we want to work together and do our utmost to make a difference, leaving each destination untouched yet uplifted.
We believe in being a truly customer and colleague centric business. We expect our teams to really understand our holidays, so you’ll get the chance to visit some of our wonderful destinations. These trips are hard work, but you’ll see some amazing things and enjoy unique experiences.
The opportunity
You will be responsible for supporting the development and implementation of Newmarket Holidays’ sustainable tourism strategy. The role will report directly to the Senior Product Planning Manager, to assist the company’s overall vision and objectives in delivering its key initiatives and targets.
As a keen ambassador for the team, you will raise awareness of Newmarket Holidays’ commitments through engaging stakeholders, ensuring that sustainability practices are integrated and communicated throughout the business in a positive, proactive way.
You will help promote eco-friendly practices all round, work with local communities and ensure our tourism activities contribute positively to the environment and local culture within the destinations we operate.
Key responsibilites
Who we are looking for
An educational background in tourism, environmental studies or a related field is beneficial, and/or similar experience within the tourism industry, destination management, or sustainability within a different business sector. Ideally someone with knowledge of sustainability principles and their application in tourism. This person will definitely need to be able to adapt to new challenges and work collaboratively in our busy, team environment, as well as being an independent self-starter, who will take initiative and self-organise. Strong communication and interpersonal skills are an absolute must-have, along with proficiency in digital tools and data analysis. It’s expected that this person will have passion for sustainability and ethical practices.
